Surnames: Forbes McGillivray MacGillivray
I'm looking fo rthe families of two people; Mary Elizabeth Forbes and Andrew McGillivray (MacGillivray). Most of the Forbes family were in and around St. Andrews while the Mc(Mac)Gillivrays were in Antigonish. They married in St. Andrews and moved to Boston. Mary died in 1910 of TB. Afterwards their son, Angus MacGillivray, moved to NS to live with her family. Andrew McGillivray dies in 1933.

If you have any information please let me know.

Further to Marleen's info, the MacIntosh family were early pioneers in the area so info can be found and descendents are still in area, as are Forbes's if you are trying to make a connection.
